I wonder what scientific advancements you use today that was considered crazy when first invented.

Unless you’re living like a damn Neanderthal, you’re living and breathing because of scientific advancements one way or another.

I’m for advancement in technology and sciences if it benefits our well being. Put your fucking politics away.

The thing about a technology platform company: once they have got their platform, churning out things on the platform becomes exceptionally efficient, and it's very easy to be prolific. The complication from that is that while you can now be ultra-efficient in the development of drug candidates, doing the actual trials for all of them becomes problematic. Trials are slow and expensive. Thanks to COVID, Moderna can probably float a bunch of trials on their own, but it's still tricky.

Moderna also has a delivery problem. They're being sued by several parties over their use of lipid nanoparticles, and that will continue to be an albatross around their neck until they resolve it or switch.

We'll see, they don't have the greatest track record for actually getting safe and effective products to market. Kinda got lucky to be in the right place at the right time with the right shareholders in positions of power to get the COVID vaccine out.

But they have burned a lot of investor money on nothing for decades prior.

I see no reason why we can't use Operation Warp Speed on all these vaccines as well. People are suffering and dying every day, if we can expedite trials and avoid red tape to get them a vaccine that will save people: do it. There is no reason to delay these life-changing vaccines a single second longer than is necessary. And the precautions are pointless: the COVID vaccine is the safest, most effective vaccine ever and it was in arms all around the world in less than a year, meanwhile some things tested for decades are being recalled because they didn't anticipate a side effect.
